Keep TEs Loaded

We present a modification with a rather straightforward name, but its functionality deserves attention. This mod ensures the constant loading of chunks that contain tile entities (game objects), excluding certain types of objects.

Key Feature

The mod automatically keeps active all map areas containing at least one tile entity. This feature operates continuously, maintaining the functionality of various mechanics even when the player is far from these chunks.

Rule Exceptions

The system ignores specific object types for performance optimization: chests, signs, End portals, mob spawners, and record players. This helps prevent excessive server load.

Practical Application

The mod creates an optimal balance between two extremes: keeping the entire map constantly loaded (as practiced on some servers) and the game's standard behavior where chunks unload when the player moves away. This is an ideal solution for projects requiring the maintenance of machine and mechanism operation without fully loading the entire map.
